What kind of wrasse did I buy?

Trying to remember to write in the tank journal.

Wrasse, red in color, faint lines, pretty sure the first name ended in "...pinis"

Can't find anything online; assuming its a different name from its common name.

Was it a possum wrasse in the wetmorella species? Like the little guy in my avatar.

He/she is still hiding in the back. LFS said it is a Squamipinnis wrasse, but Google leads me nowhere. The only thing with Squamipinnis in the name is an Anthias.

I guess I'll be taking pictures when he decides to be less skeered.

Cirrhilabrus rubripinnis?

Cirrhilabrus rubripinnis?

I think you win

Hard to tell with only the blue LEDs on, but that sure looks like him when he was at the LFS.

Thanks so much.
